The place

Villa Saveria G is part of a medieval hamlet located on a tableland (300 meters or about 984 feet above sea level) in the heart of the Sienesi Hills. It is surrounded by vineyards and olive groves. You will be in the middle of the region where the Chianti Colline Sienesi is produced. You will arrive in the place after going through a long way framed by high cypresses leading to a wide area where you will see four beautiful buildings in stone.

Amidst and around the buildings are green lawns, high pine and oak trees, and several flower beds and hedges well-cared for. One part of the area is equipped as a playground for your kids to play, right on a beautiful green lawn delimited by hedges.

The stone houses, wisely restored, boast all the fascination of Tuscan rural architecture, with loggias, terraces, outdoor staircases, and lovely courtyards distributed among the houses and providing outdoor spaces where one can pleasantly relax.

From any place in the hamlet you will feast your eyes on a horizon of small green hills intercalated as waves of an ocean: it is the sweet scenery of the Sienesi Hills, many times reproduced by several artists.

The atmosphere you will be involved by is that typical of the Tuscan countryside, which has infatuated many visitors. Get ready to enjoy a vacation of pure relaxation!

You will easily be able to take turns at visiting the splendid cities of art or the historical hamlets nearby: you can begin with Florence and Siena and then head to San Gimignano and Monteriggioni (16 km or about 10 miles away), Volterra (30 km or about 18.6 miles away), among other places.

The stone buildings of the hamlet are subdivided into 12 small vacation apartments which share the use of the swimming-pool and the sun-drenched area. In addition, every apartment has its own private outdoor space furnished with umbrellas, a table and chairs. A portable barbecue is available upon request.

The proprietors of the hamlet produce great wine, which can be purchased in the place.

Also available to guests is a small vegetable garden, where you can personally pick seasonal vegetables.

A car is necessary during your stay at Villa Saveria.
